وَقَالَ أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ اَلْبَاقِرُ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: «إِنَّ اَلْأَظَافِيرَ إِذَا أَصَابَتْهَا اَلنُّورَةُ غَيَّرَتْهَا حَتَّى أَنَّهَا تُشْبِهُ أَظَافِيرَ اَلْمَوْتَى فَلاَ بَأْسَ بِتَغْيِيرِهَا.
Imam Muhammad ibn Ali Al-Baqir عليه السلام said: "When nails are affected by Nuura (depilatory paste), they can change their appearance, such that they may resemble the nails of the deceased. Therefore, there is no harm in changing (their appearance)."
